Description

In this seminar some basic algorithms in bioinformatics are addressed.
Topics are: Basic Concepts in Molecular Biology, Pairwise Sequence Alignment, Multiple Sequence Alignment, BLAST, Phylogenetic Tree Reconstruction Methods, Computer Based Gene Predictions, Genome Rearrangements, Physical Mapping, DNA Fragment Assembly, Microarrays (DNA Chips).
The studends are supposed to work out and perform a approx. 35-45 min. presentation to a given topic based on the given literature.
In case of problems during the preparation the students should contact their tutor for help.

Important Dates:

  • 2-3 weeks before the presentation, the student has to contact the tutor.
  • One week before the presentation the student has to hand out a final version of the required 10-15 page report
    (a summary of the topic in style of a scientific publication).
    The report should describe and discuss the topic logically, didactically, and structured.
  • One week before the presentation the student has to hand out a pre-version of the slides
  • On friday before the talk, the final version of the slides are required.

Literature
will be given in the proseminar
 

Language
German and English are equally admitted languages for report, slides, and the presentations.

Layout
The layout of the report should be geared to the template documents that can be found here. Additionally the first page and the first slide should contain the title of the proseminar and the presentation, the student's name and email address and the tutor's name and the date.

Citing and quotation
If figures, formulations or whole sentences are taken verbally from the references it has to be marked as a citation; this is also the case if the reference is a www document, there the exact url and the author of the text has to be cited.

Assessment
The quality of the presentaton and the report will be assessed in respect of content and rhetoric and a total grade will be given by the tutors.
